Central Elementary celebrated our veterans on Friday, November 10. The afternoon started with the Patriot Guard Riders posting American flags out in front of the school. Once they posted the flags, they joined us in the assembly. We had all of our veterans walk to the assembly in a parade so they could see our hallway decorations. Once the veterans reached the gym they were met with cheering by the students and faculty. The assembly started with the colors being presented by our high school Marine Corps ROTC. The student led the assembly (and they did fantastic!!). We had Randy Dixon, representative from the Patriot Guard Riders, come and speak to our students about freedom. He did a great job. All grade levels presented a piece of the assembly (3rd-song. 2nd-poetry contest, 1st-poem, K-sign language song). ALL of them were so good (goosebumps good!) and worked so hard to present this to our well-deserving veterans. I would like to thank our Veteran’s Day Committee as well as the staff for practicing with our students to put on this excellent assembly.
